85 85  24. While compilation of statistics of average [[earnings>>doc:working:Glossary.Earnings.WebHome]] and hours of (% style="color:#e74c3c" %)work(%%) on a monthly basis is desirable, this imposes a heavy burden on establishments and on statistical offices. On the other hand, half-yearly or annual collection of data does not provide adequate indicators of short-term seasonal variations or trends. As a minimum, the current programme should include the compilation of quarterly statistics of average [[earnings>>doc:working:Glossary.Earnings.WebHome]] and hours of (% style="color:#e74c3c" %)work(%%).

For purposes of wage statistics, the agricultural sector should comprise major groups 111 (Agricultural and Livestock Production) and 112 (Agricultural Services) of the International Standard Industrial Classification of All Economic Activities. In certain circumstances, it may be desirable to compile data separately for each of these major groups.

141 141  47. The definition of "agricultural (% style="color:#e74c3c" %)work(%%)" established for the 1970 World Census of Agriculture should be adopted for the purposes of wages statistics, so far as possible. By agricultural (% style="color:#e74c3c" %)work(%%) or agricultural activities is meant any farm (% style="color:#e74c3c" %)work(%%) or planning necessary to the operation of the holding.

145 -49. In developed countries and for the modern agricultural sector in developing countries, statistics of [[earnings>>doc:working:Glossary.Earnings.WebHome]] based on payrolls and other records of employers should be collected, using the agricultural holding as the reporting unit. However, agricultural [[employees>>doc:working:Glossary.Employees.WebHome]], apart from permanent [[employees>>doc:working:Glossary.Employees.WebHome]], are not necessarily attached to one particular agricultural holding. Notably in developing countries, more especially in the traditional sector of agriculture, prolonged continuous [[employment>>doc:working:Glossary.Employment Work.WebHome]] with the same employer is relatively rare and, in addition, some workers alternate between (% style="color:#e74c3c" %)working(%%) for wages and self-[[employment>>doc:working:Glossary.Employment Work.WebHome]], or between agricultural and non-agricultural [[employment>>doc:working:Glossary.Employment Work.WebHome]]. In such situations, the agricultural holding is not the most suitable reporting unit for collection of certain types of data, especially for comprehensive statistics of average [[earnings>>doc:working:Glossary.Earnings.WebHome]] during the year from agricultural [[employment>>doc:working:Glossary.Employment Work.WebHome]] and for statistics of the corresponding hours (% style="color:#e74c3c" %)worked(%%).

147 147  50. Statistics of agricultural wages in the traditional subsector may be obtained through household sample surveys. The principal activity criterion should be used for defining agricultural [[employees>>doc:working:Glossary.Employees.WebHome]]. A person would thus be considered to be an agricultural [[employee>>doc:working:Glossary.Employees.WebHome]] if the principal source of the income accrued to him during a specified reference period was agricultural wages.
